LOL: You don’t want to be broadcast live on the entire network, right.?

After winning the game, all five players from Top Esports were called in for interviews. All four major divisions were involved, and the wildcard division also joined in the fun.

After the interview, everyone at Top Esports went back to eat together, and then reviewed the game. After the review, everyone went back to their rooms to rest.

Chen Yi Qiu was lying on the bed looking at his phone. He went into the anti-stress bar and took a look.

I found that no one cared much about today's game, probably because it was too easy for Top Esports.

Now everyone is discussing tomorrow's game against KZ.

[Whether Kingzone is really strong or not, we will know tomorrow. I want to see what they are bragging about all day long.]

[It is very likely that it is parallel imports, really, I have this feeling. ]

[It’s hard to say. Anyway, KZ has talent. Except for the bot lane, which is a bit old, the rest are young.]

[The bottom lane of Top Esports is also young, and they are terrible. 】

[Top Esports’ bottom lane is definitely no match for the opponent. The two Xuanming masters have abused Bang and Wolf before. ]

[If the two Xuanming Elders were singled out, they would actually be just like that, but these two old guys have played together for so many years, and their tacit understanding is not something that a young group can compare to.]

At noon the next day, everyone from Top Esports came to the restaurant to eat. The game was at two o'clock in the afternoon, so they couldn't eat too much now, otherwise they would feel sleepy then. They just ate a little and filled their stomachs in the evening.

Kim Min-a and Zhao Enjing were waiting at the restaurant entrance as usual, and they had greeted Chen Yiqiu and Li Xianghe in advance.

After arriving at the restaurant, Chen Yi Qiu found that the atmosphere was not right.

Just now, when I was at the door, I could still hear the noise inside, people were eating and chatting.

But after coming in, it suddenly became quiet and everyone was in sync.

The group found a place to sit down and started ordering.

Jin Min-joo sat next to Chen Yi-qiu and asked quietly, "What's going on? The atmosphere doesn't seem right. Is it my illusion?"

Chen Yiqiu shook his head: "It's not an illusion, I guess it's because of KZ."

"KZ?" Jin Min-a looked around and soon she noticed the KZ members.

Sure enough, there seemed to be an invisible and powerful aura between KZ and Top Esports. The other teams were overwhelmed and did not want to be involved in this contest.

The two sides haven't fought each other yet, so it's hard to say who will have the last laugh, so other teams choose not to take sides.

Jin Min-a whispered, "Oppa, we should be able to win the game this afternoon, right?"

Chen Yiqiu asked back: "Do you think there is a chance that we will lose?"

"No." Jin Min shook his head.

Chen Yiqiu responded: "So, we will win."

"Yeah, I believe you." Jin Min-wo nodded repeatedly.

After finishing their meal, everyone at Top Esports took a short break and then headed straight to the competition venue.

In the lounge, Chen Yi Qiu took out his mobile phone and started to follow the news online, just as a form of entertainment.

The popularity on the Internet is skyrocketing, and now the whole world is paying attention to this game.

Although it is a group stage, it seems that the final champion can be determined.

When Peanut saw Chen Yi Qiu looking at his phone, he immediately came over and seemed very interested.

Chen Yiqiu asked, "What do you want to see? Can't you see the intranet as well? Why do you have to see mine?"

Little Peanut said with a smile: "It's more fun to watch it together, Brother Yiqiu."

Just then, footsteps were heard at the door of the lounge, and Li Jae-wan walked in from outside.

As soon as he saw Li Zaiwan, Peanut became nervous, like a mouse seeing a cat.

However, this time Li Zaiwan did not come to him directly. After greeting everyone, he went straight to find Chen Wei and Liu Qingsong in the bottom lane.

Li Zaiwan said, "You two must win today. The two players in the bottom lane of Kingzone are so disgusting. Bae Junzhi and I have suffered a lot at their hands before."

Peanut asked, "What time before are you talking about? When they were in Dragon Ball?"

Li Zaiwan responded: "Yes, they have played together for such a long time, they have such tacit understanding, it feels like they are playing alone. If you guys in the bottom lane are not careful, you will definitely suffer a big loss."

Chen Yi Qiu could see a kind of obsession in Li Zai Wan. He really wanted someone to help him bully KZ's bottom lane, otherwise he would not be able to sleep at night.

So Chen Yiqiu asked, "Were you humiliated by them again in the spring season? That's why you reacted so strongly."

Hearing this, Peanut started laughing: "Of course it is. I watched their previous match against Kingzone. They couldn't beat the bottom lane at all. It was fine because they couldn't beat the mid, top and jungle either. The bottom lane was attacked by the mid, top and jungle together and they did all kinds of tower diving."

"I remember one game, Lee Jae-wan died nine times, and didn't get a single assist, let alone a kill."

Little Peanut laughed out loud, as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world.

"Wanghu, you!" Li Zaiwan just wanted to knock Xiaohuasheng to the ground with one punch.

Chen Yiqiu said: "We do need to be careful in the bottom lane. They have some talent as a team, but there is no need to be too anxious. After all, it is a game for five people."

Chen Yi Qiu's statement was very tactful, meaning that if you can't win, don't give up, wait for your teammates to help.

Chen Wei and Liu Qingsong naturally understood what was said, but for them, this was not something to be happy about.

They had undergone special training for laning before, and Chen Yi Qiu and Li Xianghe trained together.

Isn't now the time to check the results?
On the other side, at the game site, in the LPL region commentary booth, Wawa and Miller were ready.

Wawa explained: "What is about to take place is the third day of the group stage of the 2018 League of Legends Mid-Season Invitational. The two teams are the new champion from the LPL region, Top Esports, and the new champion from the LCK region, Kingzone DragonX."

Miller continued: "These two teams represent the highest level of the two divisions at the moment. Let us look forward to their performance."

At the invitation of the host, contestants from both sides came on stage.

The crowd was full of enthusiasm, cheering for both teams:
"Tao Bo! Tao Bo! Tao Bo!"

"KZ! KZ! KZ!"

Wawa explained: "Judging from the expressions of both players, they should be quite relaxed. Is this the calmness of a strong person?"

Miller seemed to have discovered something: "But not all ten players are calm. I feel like Top Esports' bottom lane is a little nervous. I hope they can perform well. Compared to the beginning of the season, Top Esports' bottom lane has made great progress in laning."

On the field, Chen Yi Qiu glanced at KZ.

He noticed that the expressions of the KZ players were not right, as if they were too relaxed.

Although this game will not affect the advancement of the two teams, it will affect the ownership of the first place.

Whoever wins will have a better chance of getting first place in the group stage. Of course, this first place actually has no substantial benefits, it just sounds better.

Doesn't KZ value this?

Players from both sides took their seats and began BP.

Hongmi was on guard, because he had never played a training match with KZ, so he didn't know whether KZ had any cards in hand, so he could only take one step at a time.

However, after the BP was over, Topbo players found that KZ's BP was just so-so, a very common BP, with heroes that other teams often used in this MSI. Entering the game, Topbo players thought that KZ would have some special arrangements.

It turns out that there is no such thing, it is just a normal way of playing.

KZ's advantage in the bottom lane was not as big as expected, so they just suppressed it a little.

In the end, Top Esports relied on their advantage in the top lane to win the game relatively easily.

Although the game lasted more than 30 minutes, in Chen Yi Qiu's opinion, Top Esports did not encounter any serious trouble and the rhythm was in Top Esports' hands.

So the audience in the live broadcast room began to mock:
[KZ is just like this? Just this level? ]

[I feel like KZ is not good either, they are bragging all day long, I thought they were invincible. ]

[We don’t know if KZ is invincible, but online they have already won the championship for the next ten years. ]

[It's a big deal. This is considered a big deal. 】

[Has no one noticed that KZ seems to be hiding something? 】

[Hide something? Hide until S9? ]

[Every year, the teams that claim to have hidden something never end up well. ]

After winning the game, the Top Esports team accepted an interview and then returned to the locker room together.

Li Zaiwan was already waiting in the lounge. When he saw the Top Esports team coming in, he followed Hongmi and Guo Hao and went forward to express his condolences.

Hongmi stepped forward and said, "Thank you for your hard work, everyone. After we get past KZ, the rest of our games should be pretty easy."

Guo Hao has already started to cheer for the championship: "I'm thinking about what kind of celebration banquet to prepare for all the MSI champions to match this championship. Hahahaha, this is the first time that we have participated in an international competition since the establishment of Top Esports."

"Winning the championship for the first time, I think it's rare throughout the history of the league."

Hearing this, everyone at Top Esports laughed. It has to be said that although Guo Hao is not professional in the specific content of the game, he can provide emotional value.

For a manager, that's enough.

Many team managers, let alone providing emotional value, consider their players lucky if they can avoid causing trouble.

"Well played! I haven't seen KZ lose a game in a long time. It feels so good!" Li Zaiwan cheered. He looked so excited that people who didn't know him would think he was playing the game up there.

Peanut started to brag: "I feel like their CUZZ isn't that good. They were bragging about this 14-year-old genius, the most talented jungler in LCK history."

Li Zaiwan and Xiaohuasheng reached a rare agreement and laughed out loud: "Hahaha? The most talented jungler? How could it be him? He's just bragging without thinking."

At this moment, Chen Yiqiu asked a serious question: "Who is the most talented jungler in LCK history? I don't think I have ever heard of this."

After hearing this, everyone fell silent. Chen Wei and Liu Qingsong naturally didn't need to answer, as they had never played in LCK.

Chen Yi Qiu looked at Li Xianghe: "Do you have any clues? You have been in LCK for so long?"

Li Xianghe glanced at Peanut.

Peanut's mouth corners raised, waiting for Li Xianghe's praise. Although he tried his best to control his expression, he couldn't control it. The honorary title of "the most talented jungler in LCK history" was too tempting. As long as you are a jungler, it is difficult to control your emotions.

Finally, Li Xianghe said, "It's not Wanghu anyway."

"Ah? Brother Xianghe, you!" Peanut almost vomited blood. How could this happen?
Li Zai Wan laughed so hard that her stomach hurt: "Hahahaha, look at the way you were showing off just now. Oh, you made me laugh to death. You didn't really think Li Xianghe would say it was you, did you?"

Peanut immediately shut himself off, turned away, hid in a dark corner and muttered, "I'm going to draw a circle and curse you..."

Guo Hao said, "This is the only match today. Now that it's over, let's celebrate together. The second round will start tomorrow. We can celebrate a little, but we will celebrate more after we win."

So under the leadership of Guo Hao, everyone at Topbo left the lounge and prepared to go back for dinner.

However, in the corridor, the Top Esports team met the entire KZ team who were about to leave.

The two teams met each other, and Li Zaiwan, who had been smiling at the beginning, also became quiet. The atmosphere seemed a little strange.

Chen Yi Qiu also took a quick look at KZ and found a problem.

Although KZ lost the game now, it doesn’t look like how frustrated and lost KZ is.

It was as if they had expected this defeat.

Is it because they have a good mentality, or do they already know they can’t win and can accept losing?
I don’t understand, but it doesn’t matter anymore.

For Chen Yi Qiu, as long as he plays his own game well, he doesn't care about other people's situations.

After leaving the competition venue, everyone from Top Esports found a place to eat.

"Why did you follow me? Are you from Top Esports?" Seeing Li Zaiwan also followed into the box, Xiao Huasheng took the initiative to attack.

After hearing what Peanut said, Li Zaiwan was really a little embarrassed, even though he was usually very thick-skinned.

But there are also people here like Hongmi and Guo Hao whom he is not familiar with.

"It's okay, let's just have a meal together, we are all friends." Guo Hao tried to smooth things over.

Li Zaiwan smiled, and he took the initiative to sit next to Xiao Huasheng and said, "Then I will sit here and reminisce with my old teammates."

"Woo! No, I want to sit with Brother Yi Qiu!" Little Peanut ran with the bowl, ran to Chen Yi Qiu and sat down, begging for Chen Yi Qiu's protection.

While the waiter was not serving the food, Chen Yiqiu took out his phone and started playing. Now the friends in the anti-stress bar are all very optimistic:

[LCK is about to break down. Not only was the female host poached by Top Esports, but their spring season champion was also beaten. ]

[This is a case of losing both the wife and the army. ]

【The more I look at Taobo, the happier I am. Hahahaha.】

[If LPL could have two more teams like Top Esports, I dare not even think about it. I would wake up laughing in my dreams.]

[That's enough. There is only one Top Esports in the world. Do you want more? How dare you think so? ]

After finishing their meal, everyone at Top Esports went back to review the game together, and then took a rest.

The next three days will be the second round of the group stage.

The schedule for this second round is the opposite of the first round.

This means that if Top Esports plays against KZ in the last game of the first round, then they will play against KZ in the first game of the second round.

Things went more smoothly than everyone at Top Esports had imagined. They easily defeated KZ in 8 minutes, and there were no obstacles in the next two games. Top Esports got an 0- record, with only the last two games left.

There is no pressure on Top Esports in these two games.

KZ even lost a game to FNC and now has lost three small games. Of course, this does not prevent them from entering the knockout stage.

So that night, someone came to find Chen Yi Qiu.

He is playing with his phone and getting ready for bed.

"Knock knock knock!" Suddenly there was a knock on the door.

Chen Yiqiu came to the door and opened it. It turned out to be Impact and the rest of TL. The whole team was there! (End of this chapter)
